The Bonanza G36 aircraft departed from runway 23 at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport, covering a takeoff distance of 566 meters, which accounted for 18% of the runway length. The aircraft lifted off at a speed of 87 knots, and the local weather conditions at the time of takeoff were characterized by a temperature of 14 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 16 knots from a direction of 210 degrees. This resulted in a crosswind of 4 knots and a headwind of 15 knots.

After takeoff, the aircraft entered a left-hand pattern, and the distance covered during this phase was less than 1 nautical mile in 434 seconds. The subsequent left-hand pattern crosswind leg was completed in just 12 seconds, covering a distance of less than 1 nautical mile. The aircraft then proceeded to the downwind turn, which covered a distance of 9 nautical miles at an angle of 45 degrees to the runway, with a turn angle of 32.0 degrees. The downwind leg itself was 2 nautical miles long and took 33 seconds to complete.

The base leg turn was a 1-nautical-mile distance, with a turn angle of 55.7 degrees to the runway. The base leg itself was less than 1 nautical mile long and took 29 seconds to complete. The final turn was also less than 1 nautical mile long and took 16 seconds to complete. The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 23 from the north-east, heading 230.0 degrees at an altitude of 743 feet above ground level (agl) and a distance of 2 nautical miles from the runway.

The landing on runway 23 was successful, with a threshold height that was considered good. The threshold speed was also good at 77 knots, and the touchdown distance was 138 meters, which was considered good. The touchdown speed was 71 knots, and the touchdown rate was firm at -389 feet per minute (fpm). However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned from the centerline by 4.1 meters.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were characterized by a temperature of 13 degrees Celsius and a wind speed of 11 knots from a direction of 219 degrees, resulting in a crosswind of 1 knot and a headwind of 11 knots. The total landing distance was 389 meters, which accounted for 13% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating a smooth and controlled landing.

The total flight distance was 25 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 18 minutes. The aircraft used 13 kilograms of fuel during the flight.

Landing on runway 23 at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport in the Bonanza G36

Landing Score 94.88 %

Landing Summary

The Bonanza G36 aircraft successfully landed at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport, achieving a score of 94.9%. The final approach was conducted from the north east, heading 230.0° at 2 nautical miles and 743 feet above ground level (agl). The aircraft demonstrated good control and precision during the approach, ultimately landing on runway 23.

The runway length at LFBD Bordeaux-Mérignac Airport is 3,100 meters, providing ample space for the Bonanza G36 to touch down safely. The threshold height was good, indicating that the aircraft was at the correct altitude when approaching the runway. The threshold speed of 77 knots was also within the acceptable range, demonstrating the pilot's ability to manage the aircraft's speed effectively.

Upon touchdown, the Bonanza G36 performed well, with a touchdown distance of 138 meters and a touchdown speed of 71 knots. The touchdown rate of -389 feet per minute (fpm) was firm, indicating a controlled descent. However, the runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 4.1 meters from the centerline, which may require some adjustments in the pilot's approach technique.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were favorable, with a temperature of 13°C and a wind speed of 11 knots at 219°. The crosswind component was minimal at 1 knot, while the headwind component was 11 knots, which helped to stabilize the aircraft during the approach. The total landing distance of 389 meters was only 13% of the runway length, indicating a short and controlled landing.

During the rollout, the Bonanza G36 demonstrated excellent alignment, with the runway rollout alignment being very good. This suggests that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft and made the necessary adjustments to ensure a smooth and safe landing. Overall, the landing was successful, and the aircraft performed well under the given conditions.
